JDM headlights
 
are JDM 1 piece headlights DOT and SAE approved?

k thanks, nix those then

i believe the lens should have a DOT inscription if it is

Qmx323 12-16-2009 06:00 PM

depends what car, and whether its aftermarket JDM or OEM JDM

i think OEM silvia 1 pieces are DOT approved

spoon.ek9 12-16-2009 06:01 PM

mine are jdm (i'm pretty sure) and somehow they have DOT stamped on them. so it's not always true.

what car is this for, DA?

if you get JDM housings, I hope you can swap the headlight reflectors to USDM please.... JDM are meant to be used in right hand drive cars, for flaring of light to the left.... in Japan, it's the shoulder on the left, but here is the opposite lane, so you'll blind other motorists. It may say DOT or SAE, but if it's from Japan, try not to use it. ;P
